The Secret Sauce of Creativity | Stephen Hall | TEDxRegina

Stephen has spent his entire life being creative. It’s not just personality that makes him creative, it’s deliberate practice, process and often straight-up discipline. Come inside the mind of a Creative Director and find how you can be more creative in your life and where the world needs your ideas.
Stephen spent 13 years in the Science Centre community designing exhibits and programs for the Ontario and the Saskatchewan Science Centre; 18 years as a television director creating TV shows for CBC, HGTV and the W Network; and six years as a creative director at Brown Communications Group in Regina. His current clients include SaskPower and Saskatchewan Health.
Stephen’s professional passions are evenly divided between design and storytelling. He is fascinated by the creative process, and is a compulsive storyteller.
Stephen lives in Regina with his wife, Laurie and their daughters, Amelia and Nellie.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    One idea to prevent the global warming is to find new ways and means to neutralise the effect of the carbon di oxide in the atmosphere so that the globe does not get warmed up. Though if the idea looks absurd but there is nothing in experimenting with it by some one. Thanks.

    The Apollo-13 mission's lack of breathable air problem and its problem solving method is way over used by creativity experts. Let's not forget that all NASA's space programs are surrounded by some of the world's best scientists, who many of them possess specialized knowledge on all fields, and on how to solve problems quickly. So let's think about what would happen if those scientists was replaced with average people. Would those average people be creative enough and knowledgeable enough to know exactly what could work? No they couldn't be, because besides creativity, you also need specialized knowledge. Everything else he said is right on. But the Apollo-13's problem solving technique is hardly can be considered as a great example of how creativity works for the rest of society. We definitely need to solve our CO2 and air pollution problems, and we have plenty of scientists all around the world who are warning us for decades now that we need to do something, yet nothing still happened, because of the enormous power of the energy industry's influence on our politicians. The real problem is not lack of creativity, but rather: lack of powerful people who are dare and able to combat the energy industry's aim for making even more profit for themselves. The real problem is selfishness, greediness, arrogance and making as much money as they can.
